Finally. It is finally my time. I am finally twenty-two. I am finally qualified -- and entered -- to be Matched. 

I have dreamt of this day since I found out about the Matching, at the age of seven. 

The booklet I received informed me that after the Matching, the Matched partners are forced into a room together to fall in love. They don't let the couple out until they are in love, proven by a lie detector test. 

Occasionally, the girl is already in love with the man, or they dated and were still in love. 

That could not possibly be my case. I have never been in love and I've never dated anyone. Except for Lewis Eisenhower in the ninth grade. He wasn't bad-looking and he was really sweet. Until he reached sophomore year and became a total jerk. 

And, of course, there was Xander...

"I want a divorce." And just hearing him say that my whole world that seemed to revolve around him stopped. Gathering myself I barely managed to speak in a voice that even I could not recognise. I couldn't comprehend anything going around me. "Wh..hy?" As soon as the words left my mouth he threw the file and the photographs spread across the floor. And those photographs had me in compromising positions with not one but several men. Looking at those photos I looked straight into his eyes. Disgust and hatred. The only emotions I could see. Taking a deep breath I composed myself and tried to keep my face void of the emotions I felt at that moment. Hurt and immense pain. If he didn't trust me then he has no right to see me vulnerable too. "Is this the only reason why you want to divorce me? No other except this?" It was foolish of me to ask him but I had to make sure. Also for me trust comes before love. If he doesn't trust me I don't even want to save the relationship. "Is this not enough you whore? What else can I expect from a slut and a gold digger like you! I knew it from the start that all you showed was just a facade. Your innocence, kindness, it was all fake. I just don't believe how can I be so dumb." Was I hurt? No I was broken beyond repair. My heart ached. I felt like I was seconds away from collapsing. I had far exceeded the limit of hurt and pain. I was so powerless in that moment that I couldn't even fight with him. Love makes you strong. I have heard and felt that countless times but they always forget to mention what comes after that. Love makes you weak too. I couldn't shout at him because I loved him. But I had to be brave. For myself. ************************************************** Is love enough for two people to be together or is there something more important than love? This is story of Xander and Sophie who loved each other but still couldn't be together. Because more important than love is trust. © All rights reserved

Hi, I'm Lauren but people call me Lon. I'm 15 years of age. I have long brown hair and big brown eyes, many people describe me as being pretty and guys hit on me all the time. It's so annoying, unless they're cute haha. I have a 6 year old sister and an older brother who's 18, he's like my best friend! My mother, father, brother, sister and I live in a massive house in California. My mom's best friend is the mother of the one and only teenage pop sensation; Cody Simpson. Girls fall head over heels for him but not me, I hate him. I mean yeah he's hot and everything but I really hate him, he hates me too. Don't get me wrong, I love the family just not Cody and that will never change. Or will it? Anything else you need to know about me will all come clear in time..
